Superior Electronics, Amazing
Simplicity
In the revolutionary new Sony®
α
(alpha) DSLR-A100 camera, Sony
digital technology takes you a giant
step toward professional
performance -- with advanced
imaging, image stabilization and
creative control functions, plus ease
of operation that helps everyone
take better digital pictures right from
the start.
Advanced Lenses and Accessories
The Sony®
α
(alpha) DSLR-A100
camera is your gateway to an
incredibly sophisticated array of
lenses and accessories -- including
precision Sony® standard and zoom
lenses, Sony® "G" Series lenses with
advanced motorized autofocusing,
amazingly bright Carl Zeiss® T*
coated lenses, professional-quality
flash units, and compatibility with
over 16 million Maxxum®, Dynax and
A-mount lenses sold worldwide.
10 MP APS-size CCD Imager
A large APS-size CCD imager allows
more light to pass to each pixel,
increasing sensitivity and reducing
noise -- and providing greater detail
when you make big prints or crop in
close on your subject.
Super SteadyShot® Image
Stabilization
When you shoot with high
sensitivity, the shutter remains open
longer -- so to compensate for shaky
hands or fast-moving subjects, the
Sony® Super SteadyShot® system
automatically reduces image blur.
And because it works in-camera,
you’ll get the benefit of Super
SteadyShot® stabilization with every
lens you use.
Sharp, Clear Photos that Preserve the
Mood
With high-sensitivity (ISO 1600)
shooting, the Sony®
α
(alpha) DSLR-
A100 camera captures great photos
without flash even in low light --
which makes it an ideal system
camera for shooting without a tripod
or in locations (like museums and
churches) where flash is prohibited.
Anti-Dust Technology
Changing lenses in a DSLR can allow
dust to enter the camera -- so to keep
the CCD imager clean for better
pictures, the Sony®
α
(alpha) DSLR-
A100 camera utilizes both static-free
anti-dust coating on the CCD filter
and anti-dust vibration that
automatically shakes the CCD to
dislodge dust each time the camera
is shut off.
Dynamic Range Optimizer
To recover details in dark or bright
areas of the picture, the Sony®
α
(alpha) DSLR-A100 camera provides
two levels of Dynamic Range
Optimization: Normal DRO, to
improve shadow detail using
standard gamma curves for fast
shot-to-shot response time, or
Advanced DRO, to adjust dynamic
range area-by-area for the greatest
precision.
Bionz™ Image Processor
At the heart of the Sony®
α
(alpha)
DSLR-A100 camera is the advanced
Bionz™ Image Processor, using
hardware-based Large Scale
Integrated (LSI) circuitry that
responds ten times faster than
software image processors --
improving camera response time,
handling Dynamic Range
Optimization processing and
extending Stamina® battery life.
Eye-Start® Autofocus System
Some DSLR systems don’t start
focusing until the shutter button is
half-pressed -- but that can slow
down camera response. The Sony®
α
(alpha) DSLR-A100 camera begins its
precision autofocus adjustments the
moment you bring your eye to the
viewfinder, to capture fast-action
subjects other cameras might blur.
2.5” Clear Photo LCD Plus™ Screen
The Clear Photo LCD Plus™ design of
the Sony®
α
(alpha) DSLR-A100
camera’s built-in screen makes it easy
to read camera setup menus even in
bright sunlight -- and gives you a
better picture when you use your
screen to set up shots and check
results.
1

To catch fast action more effectively,
the Sony®
α
(alpha) DSLR-A100

management to allow more shots to
